Penthouse Duplex In Champel, Geneva

Set in the heart of Champel, one of the most sought-after neighbourhoods on Geneva’s left bank, this penthouse duplex of 359 sqm of living space (404 sqm usable) occupies the 7th and 8th floors of an upscale building with concierge service, served by two lifts (one reserved for residents and their guests, the other for service) leading directly to the apartment’s entrance. The lift also opens onto the 8th floor through its own independent door, a particularly appealing feature for accommodating teenagers or live-in help with their own private area. The residence enjoys an exceptional location, just steps from Parc Bertrand, shops, international schools and the CEVA train station, in a setting that is both residential and close to every amenity.

Built in 1970, the apartment is offered today in its original condition and calls for a complete renovation, a rare blank canvas for those wishing to shape, within a scale and location no longer found on the Geneva market, a home entirely to their own image. The main level unfolds a through-reception comprising two living rooms, a dining room, a library and an independent kitchen with service access and laundry room, complemented by a bedroom with bathroom, two walk-in wardrobes and a balcony. Upstairs, three further bedrooms, two bathrooms, a veranda and two expansive east- and west-facing terraces offer sweeping views over the city and the Jura mountains, where magnificent sunsets can be admired.

Two indoor parking spaces and a cellar complete this 10-room property, including 4 bedrooms, with a flexible layout that can accommodate up to six bedrooms. A project of scale for a buyer in search of an exceptional panorama and the freedom to compose, from floor to ceiling, the apartment of their aspirations.
